Art is Dangerous!
In the week since Ben Reilly arrived at the school for monsters he learned a few things: 1) Monsters are just like humans, some are nice, but some are bigoted assholes who are afraid of anything that's different. 2) The Newspaper Club is not as bad as he thought due to low turn up resulting in only four members, himself included, and he knows them all from when he first arrived! So that's a plus. The only one he didn't know was the president of the club Ginnei Morioka, a Werewolf that tried to frame Tsukune for things he didn't do...nasty things. Moka, or rather 'Inner Moka' as the group calls her, put him in his place and cleared Tsukune's decent name. On that note, 3) Moka had split personality dissorder, or rather her outer self is a shell designed to fit in with human society, by making her nicer and not threatening. Her inner self apparently is incredibly strong and seems to have a 'take no prisoners' attitude. And 4) If his nightmares and the rules of this school were anything to go by, this school will be his grave.
But that could wait. Right now class had just ended and the Newspaper club was getting ready to start doing their thing. The last few days it was finding something worthy of being on the front page, and so far...peanuts. They haven't found anything, although Ben did mention him tagging up the school and acting as if it was some mystery assailent, the team didn't go for it. As for his new group he made sure to notice Tsukune staring at Moka, who was reading a book about art. Amused, Ben tried to see what he could do to snap Tsukune out of his trance, he snapped his fingers, waved his hand in front of his face it wasn't until Ginnei hit him in the back of the head with a magazine that Tsukune finally snapped to attention.
"Hustle up ladies we have a paper to print, and still no front page story." he called out.
"How about 'President Slob Harasses Members With Nudie Mag!'" Ben mentioned taking note on the type of magazine Gin had. The girls of the club frowned with Yukari hitting Gin upside the head with a wash bucket. Assault aside Gin didn't stop to appreciate his crew, one member in particular.
"Hello Moka!" he leaned towards Moka looking over the book she had, "An artbook? Becoming an artist are you?"
"N-No! It's just, uh, um..." Moka fumbled with her words, not sure not to say to her president. She's def hiding something. Ben thought.
Gin gave his typical smolder and Ben could swear that he saw an angelic glow go about him. Damn, I wish I could do that. "You know, you're looking quite beautiful today. You really ought to go out with me, after all...I love you!" he pulled roses from out of nowhere and began to chase Moka around with them. "Come one, come back!" he yelled out as he chased her with his tail and ears coming out.
"Him being a Werewolf is extremely fitting, though I think it'd be more accurate if he was some sort of boar monster." Ben joked gaining a smirk from Kurumu and an approving nod from Yukari.
Suddenly Kurumu jumped up from her seat and rushed the seemingly dumbfounded Tsukune, "Oh Tsukune!" she jumped into his lap and began hugging him to no end, "I'm so glad we're in the same club together! After all I love you!" she began rubbing her breasts against his chest prompting Ben to turn away to stop the blood flow... Take that as you will.
"HOLD IT!" Yukari shouted out Objection! Ben thought. Suddenly a dust pan fell on top of Kurumu's head, and a desk fell on top of Ginnei giving him a large bump, "Anyone who harasses or assaults Tsukune or Moka shall face my magic!" she did a little twirl and smiled, "After all, I love them!"
Gin gave a confused look, "Who's that?" Evidently he received a concussion too because she's been here for a week.
"That's Yukari, our newest member. Girl genius." Moka said the last part lowly under her breath.
"Save me Tsukune!" Kurumu called out acting as if she was collapsing. Tsukune looked completely out of it and Ben came to the rescue by shoving Kurumu into the nearest chair and gave Tsukune his space. For some reason Tsukune hasn't said anything for sometime. Ben patted his shoulder and looked towards where Tsukune was looking and caught the glimpse of Moka smiling.
"You can do it champ." Ben whispered and Tsukune had a new face of determination. Sure it was red as a tomato, but determined nonetheless. Go get her dude. Ben chuckled to himself.
oOoOoOoOoOoOo
Tsukune
oOoOoOoOoOoOo
Tsukune woke up today as usual, in constant disbelief that he's survived this long at a school for monsters, I wonder what kind of monster Ben is. He never said, though judging by the outfit he wears I guess he's some sort of spider yokai...Though, I don't remeber him using webs when he fought those lizard guys. Tsukune shook off the thought and got ready for the day. Today was going to be great, or so he hoped, after all his birthday was soon, and today will be the day he asks Moka on a da- time to hang out with just the two of them...alone...on his birthday. Yeah, this is a fool proof plan! he gave a fist pump before walking over to Ben's dorm.
The day came and went, and Tsukune was losing time to ask Moka if she would hang out with him on his birthday. Sitting in class after the bell went off Tsukune was deep in thought, It's been over two months, and I'm somehow still alive. A human...a really average human at that, at a school for monsters! And I may actually survive until my 16th birthday! What a miracle! Tsukune stared intently at Moka who was reading a book and all he could do was stare at her immense beauty. It's all because of her that I'm here in the first place. And on my birthday, I'd love to spend the whole day with her, just Moka. His heart began to to beat really fast as he gained a sheepish Charlie Brown smile. He went deep in thought, Ben tried to snap him awake but it was Gin that slapped him over the head with a magazine that did the trick, "Ow!" Tsukune yelled out as he rubbed his head trying to sooth the slight pain. He hit me hard. Does he still have a grudge?
Tsukune wasn't paying much attention, well he was but I already explained what was going on when Ben was there, so you know- copy paste.
I just don't understand how people can just throw words like 'love' around like nothing. "Save me Tsukune!" Kurumu yelled out but Tsukune wasn't amused, it was Ben to the rescue who pushed Kurumu away and gave Tsukune some advice.
"You can do it champ." Ben whispered and Tsukune had a new face of determination. Okay then, on my birthday I'm telling Moka I love her! But...to do that I should be alone with her. So to do that...I've gotta ask her out.
oOoOoOoOoOoOo
"See you later Tsukune!" Moka called out as the two walked back to their dorms, Ben was there too, but he was staying silent, "I'm going this way today." Moka was heading in a different direction, one that Tsukune hadn't seen her take before.
"But...I always walk you back to the dorms." Tsukune mentioned nervously.
"Whipped." Ben said in english.
Moka shuffled her feet a bit, "I...kinda have an appointment today."
Tsukune cocked an eyebrow, "Does it have anything to do with that drawing pad?" Maybe she's just getting some drawing lessons. Tsukune hoped.
"Uh-huh, the art teacher asked me to model, but only for about a week or so." Tsukune's heart dropped ...Art?!! he turned and began pulling his hair out A model for a week? he imagined Moka wearing fashionable clothes and posing as if she was on a runway But my birthday is only six days from now! Off to the side Ben had a slight smile on his face and a light blush as he looked Moka up and down.
"Pretty cute, I'm a photographer for the paper. Maybe she'll model for me." he said lowly to himself.
Moka gained a cheerful expression, "Don't worry though! I'm still committed to the Newspaper Club!"
"This isn't about the club!" Moka reeled back a bit from the sudden outburst. She actually forgot? "I mean, d-don't you remember what's coming up?"
"Coming up?" Moka asked, "Ummmm..." she fiddled with the chain around her Rosary, I'm positive that I told her...and she forgot! She just forgot... Tsukune turned and started to dash towards the dorms surprising Moka and even throwing off Ben.
"Tsukune wait!!!" Moka called out. Tsukune turned around, "Could I...drink your blood?" What?! Tsukune thought and Ben gave an amused smile. Tsukune gave a look of dissapointment before turning around and leaving. Not seeing the sad look Moka had on her face.
oOoOoOoOoOo
Ben Reilly
oOoOoOoOoOo
Tsukune had just run back to the dorms and Ben was left with Moka alone. "You've really upset him you know?" Ben mentioned to the vampire.
Moka slumped her shoulders and looked down, "I don't see why...I haven't done anything wrong have I?"
"Well you kinda forgot about Tsukune's birthday this weekend." Ben mentioned with a bemused smile.
Moka shook her head in defiance, "No!" she yelled out causing Ben to cock an eyebrow, "I didn't forget at all, that's why I'm modeling." ...What? Ben thought.
"You're...modeling to give the model to Tsukune?" he asked and again Moka shook her head, "Oh good, I thought you were gonna send him like nude paintings or something."
Moka had a heavy blush, "Ehh? Why would you- Why would I do that?!" Ben just shrugged in response, "In return for modeling the teacher is teaching me some tricks for when I'm drawing to make my art look more realistic." Ben nodded in understanding.
"Hey," Ben called out making Moka look at him again, "you think you could suck my blood?" Moka reeled back in astonishment.
"R-Really? I-I mean...Why?" she asked with concern not sure why someone who has only been her friend for a week would be willing to "Donate" blood to her.
Ben shrugged his shoulders, "Science experiment." he gave a sincere smile and Moka went for it just before she bit down Ben stopped her, "There's something you should know."
"What is it?" Moka asked with concern.
"I'm terrified of needles." Moka gave a confused face, "Not funny? Okay, maybe next time." Moka went back to Ben's neck and slowly sunk her teeth into the side, Ben gave a slight grunt of pain, but it was over just as soon as it started. Moka, upon tasting Ben's blood, took her fangs out and began to gag.
"UGH!!! What is wrong with your body?!" she kept gagging and looked as if she was gonna throw up.
"Do you need a glass of water?" Ben asked forgetting a crucial detail. Moka gave him an angered glare and that's a look he'd rather forget, "Right can't have water, sorry."
Finally after she was done Moka looked up at Ben in disgust, "What is wrong with your blood?" she asked.
"It's not great." was Ben's cryptic reply.
"If your blood wasn't good, then why did you let me drink it!?"
Ben pulled out a pen and a small pocket notepad, "Vampires don't like my blood." he wrote. "Sorry, like I said, science experiment, I wasn't sure if a vampire could drink my blood. Sorry you had to be a guinea pig." he apologized while helping Moka to her feet.
"It- It's alright," she gave a smile and was back to her normal self, "Actually, you had a pretty good aftertaste." she said before she turned and walked to her "Appointment".
"Note to self: Don't let Moka enjoy my blood. P.S. Keep water on self at all times in case of emergency." Ben then turned heel and walked to his own dorm before the next day.
You were designed to be just like him. You will be his successor and his killer. Now go forth and do your job!
*Riiiiinnggg!!!*
Ben slammed his hand over his alarm clock effectively destroying it. Shit...That wasn't supposed to happen. he thought, I need to get up, I can't be late again. Rolling out of bed Ben sloppily throws on his clothing, making sure to place his costume in his backpack. Looking at his room he noticed it was a little sloppy, Nah, I can deal with it later. he thought before leaving his room.
Ben yawned as he walked to class, Damn, I woke up like four times last night. his nightmares were starting to get to him his constant drowsiness was proof of that. Not to mention his lack of effort on assignments, though to be fair he didn't feel the need to study for those anyways. Finally approaching the gates Ben gave a long, heavy sigh before putting on the best smile that he could and walking into the school.
oOoOoOoOoOoOoOo
"We have a story," Gin started while throwing up headshots of seven pretty girls, "We have seven missing girls on campus."
"If they are on campus they aren't missing dumbass, they're probably just avoiding you." Ben mentioned chuckling to himself while laying his head between his arms on his desk.
Gin frowned, "Do you take anything seriously American?"
"I don't take my life seriously, no."
"Missing? From our school?" Tsukune asked trying to get the group back on topic.
"Yes," Gin replied, "And in just this month too. Seven female classmates vanished without a trace, and they were all seen last on school grounds." Ben's ears perked up from that tid bit, How can they just vanish? he thought. "Your assignment is to gather information on the missing girls. We will solve this mystery, for their sake." Then I'll get in their pants! Ben joked in his head as he imagined Gin adding that part at the end. Gin walked over to the window thumb on chin in deep thought, "As you can all see from the photos, all the girls are incredibly attractive. Therefore logic dictates that Moka will be next."
"Or Kurumu." Ben noted.
"Thanks Ben!" Kurumu said with a smile on her face.
"Anyways, someone may be abducting them. If so, I have to save them. Then Moka will love me!" Gin said with a fist bump. Oh my god I was close! Ben thought before looking over at Tsukune and both gave the same facial expression of 'What the Hell?'
oOoOoOoOoOoOo
The walk back to the dorms was pretty peaceful, but it could be because that Tsukune was wobbling as Moka had drank a good amount of his blood before the end of the club meeting. Ben was helping him get home but he couldn't find himself to speak, in fact he was puzzled by the missing girls, Without a trace? How is that physically possible? Something must have been left! his thought was cut off when he and Tsukune both heard a voice in the distance, "Thank you for waiting Sensei!" Tsukune hid behind a tree and Ben climbed into it to see the girl talking with a familiar teacher, Oh, that's the art teacher. Ms...Ms... ISHIGAMI! Ben snapped his fingers when he figured it out.
"Glad you could make it Moka," Ishigami complimented, "God, you're so pretty. Makes me a little jealous. I mean, just looking at you makes me want to create art."
Bit of red flags here, I'm getting a Buffalo Bill vibe with this one. "Put the lotion in the basket!" Ben mocked with a Buffalo Bill like voice, though he sounded more like a deep voiced Chris from Family Guy.
The teacher gave a chuckle, "But nothing I make will ever be as beautiful as you!" she complimented.
"I'm really looking forward to modeling this week!" Moka said while bowing. The two walked off and Tsukune was left to his thoughts.
Or so he thought...
"Wow! And for a whole week too!" Ben said nearly scaring Tsukune half to death. Looking up Tsukune noticed Ben not holding on to anything on the tree. He was just stuck there, like a spider.
oOoOoOoOoOoOo
The next day in art Tsukune and Ben decided to be on intense look out for anything suspicious. Yeah, just act like everything is normal and find evidence if any. She is a suspect. Ben thought to himself as he took a picture of every girl that Ms. Ishigami hung around with, well that plan is moot because apparently she's the most popular teacher with the female demographic. Ben noticed that a girl had skipped gym to talk to the teacher at the window, and the two were talking for quite awhile too. Ben focused in on their conversation with his advanced hearing and heard some details that may come in handy, "...Oh yeah, I'd totally be down for modeling for you tonight." the girls said Ben took a picture of her and the teacher just in case.
From his side he saw Tsukune snooping into Moka's things, carefully sliding over to the boy's side Ben was able to look over his shoulder to see what Tsukune was looking at. And Tsukune's face said it all, hell Ben's face said it all. Both looked at each other and were in complete disbelief Ben took a picture of the art book for potential evidence, Making teens model nude is illegal, I'm like 99% sure on this one. Ben thought.
oOoOoOoOoOoOo
Tsukune
oOoOoOoOoOoOo
After class Tsukune tried his best to get Moka's attention, She just seems to be avoiding me lately. "Moka! Will you listen to me!" Tsukune yelled out again finally garnering his friend's attention.
"Ok...what's up?" she asked and Tsukune saw how cute she looked today.
Come on Tsukune, you can do it! Moka, spend my birthday with me! "I...you see...um..."
Ben saw how things were going along and whispered in Tsukune's ear, "Get her alone with you."
Tsukune, instinctively grabbed Moka's hand and began to pull her, "Come on, let's get outta here!" Tsukune rounded the corner and collided with Kurumu who landed with a thud and gave all those in the vicinity a nice upskirt.
Ben slapped his head in shame, "God, I would inherit Parker Luck wouldn't I?" he said in english. Tsukune didn't understand it, but perhaps it's best he didn't.
"Oh Tsukune!" Kurumu called out before forcibly holding the teen between her breasts, "Destiny has thrown us together again!"
"Destiny is gay! Yeah bite me Bungie." Ben called out to no one in particular.
"I'm sorry Tsukune, but I'm in a hurry!" Moka stomped off with and angry expression on her face.
And so it began, the quest for me to ask out Moka. But everytime I try, something comes between us, like Yukari- literally, Gin chasing her away, or Kurumu. And every time Ben would give me good advice, and then I'd some how screw it up. Tsukune took a deep sigh, And Ben...something is wrong, I can see it in him. Before he would smile, but now? Now I see a smile but if you catch him at the right angle I can almost swear it's forced.
Tsukune currently stood outside the art building with a face of determination, "Alright, day before my birthday, today is the day I ask her out!" he declared with a clenched fist. He approached the building and flung open the door, "Moka I want you to-" upon opening the door he found nobody in the room just an open window and wind blowing, "-guess I'll be asking the room." Tsukune heard some crying, more like sobbing really and thought he'd check it out. He walked over to a locker where, once opened, he saw a sculpture of a nude girl with tears streaming down her face, What the-
"What do you think you're doing with my art?" a mysterious voice called out in an intimidating matter prompting Tsukune to scream like a little girl. Turning around Tsukune saw Ms. Ishigami. She stared at Tsukune before closing the locker door, "Oh, Tsukune right?" she asked with a sudden smile, "You must be here to walk Moka back to her dorm, after all I'm sure that's the only way you two can talk now with the modeling she's been doing."
Tsukune was dumbfounded, "H-How did you know that?" he asked. (Quick A/N: Sorry to interupt, but in the manga Tsukune asks Ishigami how she knew Tsukune hasn't been able to talk to Moka much because of her modeling and I felt it was obvious. Like, she's the one who asked Moka to model, and surely Moka said something about it, but anyways.)
Ishigami had a surprised face, "Isn't it obvious?"
"Tsukune?" an all to familiar voice called out. Tsukune turned around to see Moka standing in the doorway, "What are you doing here? Get out!"
"Wait Moka, what are you doing? What type of modeling is this?" Tsukune asked as Moka tried to push him out.
"It doesn't matter, it-it's none of your buisness just leave!" that was his breaking point.
"Oh, I see how it is." Moka was confused, "You don't care about me! I'm nothing more than your food! I'm not your friend, I'm a tool!" Tsukune runs off in pain and anger to the club, hopefully there someone will care.
oOoOoOoOoOoOoOo
Ben Reilly
oOoOoOoOoOoOoOo
Ben and the rest of the club, minus Moka, had been waiting for Tsukune to arrive before Gin gave the news, A potential breakthrough, he called it. Well it better point us in the right direction. he thought. I also need to stay awake. Ben began inhaling an energy drink to keep him awake, this was his fifth one. Tsukune walked in and slowly closed the door. "Bout time you got here," Tsukune looked up to see Gin frowning, "You're late, we have news. Another girl went missing." Ben spit his drink when he saw the picture. That girl!
"You idiot!" Gin looked at Ben, "You waited for Tsukune to show us that? Dammit I have a lead!"
"I do too, let's go!" Tsukune called out leaving Ben somewhat speachless, but he followed him out the door regardless. Everyone else stayed behind not sure what to do.
"Okay, what was your lead?" Ben asked Tsukune.
"That girl is the same girl that skipped gym to talk to Ishigami a few days ago," Oh, he was paying attention. "I saw a statue that looked just like her in the art room!" Ben gave a thought and he came to a conclusion.
"Oh my god."
"What is it?" Tsukune asked the two of them still dashing to the art room.
"I think I know what monster she is," the two are inches away from the door before Ben punches through it like he was Chris Redfield punching a boulder, "She's-" the two stopped as they saw Moka ensnared in a tangle of snake creatures that connected to the teachers head, "a Medusa...Oh, fuckberries."
oOoOoOoOoOoOoOo
Moka
oOoOoOoOoOoOoOo
Tsukune had just left Moka to Ms. Ishigami and Moka went after him just to be stopped by the teacher, "M-Ms. Ishigami, what are you doing?"
"I'm sorry Moka, but I can't let you go..." Ishigami's face darkens and she begins to change from her original self to...something else, something dangerous.
Moka began backing away trying to get as much distance between herself and the art teacher as she could, "S-Sensei what's going on? Your hair is begining to move like snakes."
Ishigami began slowly walking towards Moka, her hair getting longer with each stride, "Sadly...Tsukune saw something he shouldn't have. So now our time together...MUST END!" suddenly her hair began lashing out and even grew teeth and looked just like snakes. Her hair lashed out and one attached itself to one of Moka's arm, the rest of her hair knocked Moka into another room. What the hell Moka thought.
"Where am I?" Moka had some blurred vision from what she assumed was plaster. When her vision returned she saw seven stone statues of nude teenagers and as she looked closer sge realized that they all resembled the girls missing. But what freaked her out the most was the tears streaming down their cheeks. "What are these?" she clenched her arm in pain and as she looked down she saw her arm was beginning to turn to stone, No! "My hand is turning to stone!"
"Such is a Medusa." Ishigami said, "Any living thing bitten by my snakes turns to stone. Just like these girls...My...Works of art." she gave a sinister smile, "Now, the most beautiful girl of all...joins my collection!" her transformation is complete and Moka realises she doesn't stand a chance.
"No..." is all Moka can get out before the snake hair lunges at her. She was done for.
"NO!!!" out came Tsukune to stop the snake hairs in their tracks.
"Tsukune?!!" Moka called out in surprise.
"Like hell if you think you're gonna turn Moka into stone!"
"Get out of my way loser!" Ishigami called out, "I don't mind taking you too, but I'll just end up destroying you and that's such a waste."
"Tsukune, you have to get out of here!" Moka pleaded once more.
"No! I'm not losing you Moka, I don't care if you don't need me, but I still need you!" Tsukune was suddenly bitten by dozens of snake hairs.
"No Tsukune!!!" Moka cried out.
"Idiot! I told you to wait!" Ben called from the ceiling.
Ishigami turned to Ben clad in his Scarlet Spider outfit, "Fool, look how the mighty hero falls!" she taunted as Tsukune turned to stone, "I've already won!" she lashed a hair at Ben but he caught it with his hand before it bit him, "What!?"
"Guess you're wrong, I still stand a fighting chance." Ben ripped the hair from Ishigami's head and she screamed in immense pain, "I'm not gonna die by your hands, and uh...she has a stone to pick with you." he chuckled as he pointed to Moka now in her 'Inner' form.
"So..." she started, "I guess this means we are allys?" Ben gave a thumbs up before leaping to the ground, "fine, just stay out of my way." she said bitterly before getting into a fighting stance.
"I was thinking the same thing." Ben turned back towards Ishigami, "You know, I don't need to get bit by your snake hairs to turn to stone, just leave me in the same room with this Moka for a little bit it will happen eventually." Ben joked causing Ishigami and Moka to growl in annoyance, "Man, I look at Tsukune and all I can think is 'same'."
"Is there a point to all of this?" Ishigami asked already gritting her teeth.
"I agree, I'm turning to stone over here!" Moka yelled out.
"Yeah, it was a distraction." Ben jumped back to the ceiling and webbed it before jumping down and hitting Ishigami multiple times webbing her with multiple strands against multiple surfaces all while dodging her snake hairs like a pro. It wasn't long before the teacher's hair was caught in a sticky situation as well.
"What is this?" Ishigami asked.
"My brother and I call it 'Maximum Spider'." Ben gave a chuckle before pointing to Moka cracking her knuckles.
"Learn your place." she sent a strong kick and one shotted the teacher. And with her defeat her prisoners were freed...somehow. Moka looked at Ben who had removed his mask, "So, you can use webs." Ben smiled in return.
"He's a pretty cool guy right? To save you like that." Ben mentioned.
"Yeah...Did you tell him to do this?"
"Nah, that was his own dumbassness, and yes that is now a word." Ben looked Moka up and down, "You know, you are pretty hot. It's too bad you're off limits huh?" Moka only gave a glare.
"Hmph, you have some pretty big brass ones if you think that you could even attempt to get with me." Ben gave a chuckle causing Moka to frown, "What's funny?"
"You are, it's kinda nice." Ben gave a thumbs up as he walked away, "Excelsior." he said as he walked away.
oOoOoOoOoOoOo
Tsukune woke up from what felt like forever, "What? Where am I?"
"Tsukune! You're awake!" Moka, now back ti her usual self cheered.
"Moka? How, I thought I turned to stone."
"It was the other me and Ben! They defeated Ms. Ishigami all crazy like." she started making karate chop motions to emphasize her point. Tsukune chuckled at her innocence, "Oh, Tsukune look!" Moka moved by a piece of cloth and removed it, "Ta-Da!"
"I-Is that-" Tsukune was dumbfounded. In front of him was a drawing of him, and a very good one at that.
"It's a present, the theme was 'What Matters Most To You' so I chose you." Tsukune's face was of complete bewilderment, "Happy birthday Tsukune!" Moka smiled with great joy.
Tsukune moved close to Moka, "Moka I-I"
"Tsukune you're awake!" Kurumu yelled as she burst into the room with the others, "Moka told us it was your birthday so we came to celebrate! I got you a year supply of cookies!"
"And I got you a voodoo doll!" Yukari yelled out.
"We didn't interrupt a moment did we?" Gin asked with a chuckle.
Tsukune chuckled too, "No." suddenly Tsukune had a thought, "Hey, where's Ben?" he asked with concern.
Moka got a sad expression, "He wouldn't answer his door, I think he's trying to rest." At least I hope. Moka thought.
oOoOoOoOoOoOoOo
Ben Reilly
oOoOoOoOoOoOoOo
In his dorm Ben Reilly sat off in the corner wide awake with many bags beneath his eyes. There was shattered glass from a small mirror near his bed on the ground near him. His hand was bloody and had shattered glass in his palm. He repeatedly kept hitting the back of his head against the wall, sobbing, repeating the same words, "Stay awake...Stay awake...Stay awake...Stay awake..."
A/N: I act out things before I write them down and I almost cried writing the last scene.
